On: Egypt has shut off the Internet (update: not everywhere)

What did you think of my point:

'They' could already turn off the internet. So why bother with the effort to make a killswitch? Because the resources it'd take to kill the internet manually matter.

I think of that in terms of 1) simple manpower, 2) cooperation, and 3) perception.

It's a valid point.
